Duality symmetry is studied for heterotic string orbifold compactifications in the presence of a general background which in addition to the metric and antisymmetric tensor fields contains both discrete and continuous Wilson lines.  相似文献

Chern-Simons gauge theory is formulated on three-dimensional Z2 orbifolds. The locus of singular points on a given orbifold is equivalent to a link of Wilson lines. This allows one to reduce any correlation function on orbifolds to a sum of more complicated correlation functions in the simpler theory on manifolds. Chern-Simons theory on manifolds is known to be related to two-dimensional (2D) conformal field theory (CFT) on closed-string surfaces; here it is shown that the theory on orbifolds is related to 2D CFT of unoriented closed- and open-string models, i.e. to worldsheet orbifold models. In particular, the boundary components of the worldsheet correspond to the components of the singular locus in the 3D orbifold. This correspondence leads to a simple identification of the open-string spectra, including their Chan-Paton degeneration, in terms of fusing Wilson lines in the corresponding Chern-Simons theory. The correspondence is studied in detail, and some exactly solvable examples are presented. Some of these examples indicate that it is natural to think of the orbifold group Z2 as a part of the gauge group of the Chern-Simons theory, thus generalizing the standard definition of gauge theories.  相似文献

We give a complete classification of gauge symmetry breaking by Wilson lines on the standard Z orbifold by deriving the general formula of the conditions of modular invariance and group invariance in the presence of background gauge fields. All possible E6×SU(3) breaking in terms of one Wilson line is given. The symmetries of the electroweak and grand unification are obtained by combining two Wilson lines.  相似文献

We test the renormalization of Wilson operators and the Mandelstam–Leibbrandt gauge in the case when the sides of the loop are parallel to the vectors used in the M–L gauge. Graphs which in the Feynman gauge are free of ultra-violet divergences, in the M–L gauge show double divergences and single divergences with non-local Si and Ci functions. These non-local functions cancel out when we add all graphs together and the constraints of gauge invariance are satisfied. In Appendix C we briefly discuss the problems of the M–L gauge for loops containing spacelike lines. Received: 31 May 2000 / Published online: 23 January 2001  相似文献

The operators in a Wilson expansion are not in general multiplicatively renormalized in non-Abelian gauge theories. This is because of the renormalization of the gauge transformations themselves. Renormalized fields may be defined, which have the old gauge transformations. Alternatively, a special choice of gauge may be made, in which the gauge transformations are unchanged on renormalization. In any case, one gauge invariant factor appears in the renormalization of the Wilson operators.  相似文献

An enveloping algebra-valued gauge field is constructed, its components are functions of the Lie algebra-valued gauge field and can be constructed with the Seiberg-Witten map. This allows the formulation of a dynamics for a finite number of gauge field components on non-commutative spaces. Received: 17 July 2000 / Published online: 31 August 2000  相似文献

The chiral limit κ ? κ c (β) in lattice gauge theories with Wilson fermions and problems related to near-to-zero (’exceptional’) eigenvalues of the fermionic matrix are studied. For this purpose we employ compact lattice QED in the confinement phase. A new estimator $\tilde m_\pi$ for the calculation of the pseudoscalar mass m π is proposed which does not suffer from ’divergent’ contributions at κ ? κ c (β)We conclude that the main contribution to the pion mass comes from larger modes, and ’exceptional’ eigenvalues play no physical role. The behaviour of the subtracted chiral condensate $\left\langle {\bar \psi \psi } \right\rangle _{subt}$ near κ c (β) is determined. We observe a comparatively large value of $\left\langle {\bar \psi \psi } \right\rangle _{subt} \cdot Z_P^{ - 1}$ , which could be interpreted as a possible effect of the quenched approximation.  相似文献

I review the resummation formalism for organizing large logarithms in perturbative expansion of collinear subprocesses through the variation of Wilson lines off the light cone. A master equation is derived, which involves the evolution kernel resulting from this variation. It is then demonstrated that all the known single- and double-logarithm summations for a parton distribution function or a transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution can be reproduced from the master equation by applying appropriate soft-gluon approximations to the evolution kernel. Moreover, jet substructures, information which is crucial for particle identification at the Large Hadron Collider and usually acquired from event generators, can also be calculated in this formalism.  相似文献

The effective mass of the gluon is defined in terms of the energy stored in the string between adjoint sources. For SU(2) lattice gauge theory, I present Monte Carlo evidence that this mass scales correctly in the weak coupling regime and hence is non-zero and finite in the continuum limit. Various systematic errors (chief among them are temperature effects) still make it difficult to give a precise numerical value for this mass at zero temperature, but a range of 500 to 800 MeV seems reasonable (using a value for the string tension of (420 MeV)2). Some attempt is made to relate this quantity to a true “constituent gluon mass.”  相似文献

Expectations of Wilson loops in lattice gauge theory with gauge group G = Z2, U(1) or SU(2) are expressed as weighted sums over surfaces with boundary equal to the loops labelling the observables. For G = Z2 and U(1), the weighted are all positive. For G = SU(2), the weights can have either sign depending on the Euler characteristic of the surface. Our surface (or flux sheet-) representations are partial resummations of the strong coupling expansion and provide some qualitative understanding of confinement. The significance of flux sheets with nontrivial topology for permanent confinement in the SU(2)-theory is elucidated.  相似文献

Weak coupling perturbative calculations of the Wilson loop in lattice gauge theory are carried out numerically up to order g4. Comparison of the results with those of the Monte Carlo calculations shows that there exists a non-perturbative contribution of an essential singularity type which may be identified as the string tension.  相似文献

We discuss gauge models based on a superstring motivated rank six subgroup ofE 6. Lepton number is an accidental unbroken symmetry of the models which leads to an essentially stable proton. One of the neutral gauge bosons couples toB-L and may have mass below a TeV.  相似文献

We consider a class of homogeneous manifolds including all semisimple coadjoint orbits. We describe manifolds of that class admitting deformation quantizations equivariant under the action ofG and the corresponding quantum group. We also classify Poisson brackets relating to such quantizations. Presented at the 11th Colloquium “Quantum Groups and Integrable Systems”, Prague, 20–22 June 2002.  相似文献
